Respect

“Respect”                                                                                        

respect: high or special regard; esteemed

 Respect is something that everyone tries to get from others. Teachers try everyday to get respect from students. Students would rather make fun of teachers and try to make them mad than listen to what they have to say. Students’ lack of respect is wrong because they are the ones who are in charge and we need to do what they say. They are telling us things to help us in school.  Respect will help you in school because it helps show teachers that you are grown up and you are mature.

Respect is something that all adults deserve from teenagers and children. Parents work hard to try to show their kids that respecting others shows what kind of person you are. When I think of people I respect I think of my parents, grandparents, teachers, and co-workers. Theses people deserve respect because they are knowledgeable in areas of life that I have yet to experience. They are the people who are helping to prepare me for what the real world will be like. Respect needs to be given before it is returned so we must be respectful to everyone around us and show our good character.  

As we worked on our project respect was something that we always needed to keep in mind. Without respect we would not have been able to express creative ideas. Teamwork will only work if there is respect for others and the ideas that they bring to the table. In my group we were respectful of everyone's ideas and took them all into consideration for our proposals.
